Well, it is something that is present and is here to stay, different sports are already glimpsing what may be the future of cryptocurrencies in the promotion of events, I have seen a racing car with the bitcoin logo, the events mentioned above and recently it is surprising to see a traditional logo of the forum on the screens of Espn for example:


source:Photo Capture ESPN - UFC event.

Litecoin did something similar a year or two ago... they sponsored some UFC games as I remember! I agree with you, it's something that's already around, and it's not only it's here to stay, I believe it will be a lot bigger! Crypto logos will be everywhere around!
All this is only a beginning, we see it here and there... just try to think about few year years back, things like this were impossible to imagine, and look where are we now! So try to imagine what can happen in the next 5-10 years! I guess total madness, crypto will take a lot more space than it takes now!

If Spain want to win the championship, they need to work more on implementation! They had plenty of opportunities to make things happen as the game went on, but they didn't take them! They were lucky that Switzerland were even worse at penalties than they were...
Switzerland almost repeated the success they achieved when they beat France in the round of 16. But unfortunately, this time they failed to beat the Spanish goalkeeper. I think they were superior in defense so there wasn't a single goal that Spain managed to score throughout the game except for that own goal. Spain have proven that they are better than Switzerland with the way they play and congratulation to the matadors who made it to the semifinal first.

It's why I said that this game can be a draw, and it was! I can't agree more with 3meek, Spain will have to change some things if they wish to do something more, today they had luck, Switzerland was worse than them at penalties! We can't say that Spain was better in this game, after all, it was 1:1 even after extra time!

Italy is taking a lead for now with 0:1, it will be interesting now... can they keep this advantage until the end... I just placed another live bet on Italy to qualify! I am not sure will we see another extra time or not!

right now, we just need to wait after this voting is over and have their final announcements regarding this farming stuff. let us see if there will be options here for their players - staking or farming. but hopefully, they will provide good options here and not limit to only one choice. because with staking, we can get different coins (which is good in diversifying your portfolio), whereas with farming, most of the time, you can only get one token.
A very surprising announcement they never stop innovating and creating more features, you now have n options to buy more BFG tokens, farming and transfer it to BFG to stake, any which way you choose, you are going to make a profit I'm a little bit uncomfortable on Biswap because Rugdoc consider them as high risk, they need to add more exchange to keep up the volume and attract more investors and traders, I again repeat a call to launch a marketing campaign.

It's nice how they pay attention to what would people like when they plan to make some changes! I think this is the third time they have voting about changes they plan to make...
Like always, every system has pros & cons... I guess it's the same now with staking or farming! Whatever happens, I believe Betfury will stay amazing as it is, with all on-site features!
I guess Robelneo has a point, a marketing campaign would be good for a new exchange on the market, it's how they can attract more people! They are still in the early stages and with so many exchanges around they will need to make an extra effort to bring people on the site, and of course to keep them there!

The people behind casinos are not going to waste money trying to make it more comfortable for you unless that gives them money in return. They are not doing this from the kindness of their hearts. Casinos literally target big spenders and offer them complementary rooms which are worth thousands to try and keep them at their casino. If that is not exploiting your customer I do not know what is. Its not a conspiracy theory they have introduced this just like alcohol is served. It gives the player a sense of enjoyment despite losing a lot of money. Weed and Alcohol are used as tools for getting bettors to spend more money. Its not a negative opinion on weed but a negative opinion on the casinos and how they exploit their customers.  

Casinos WILL waste a lot of money trying to make it more comfortable for you! They are not doing this from the kindness of their hearts (with that part I agree), they are doing that because it's what a good "service" does! I used the term "service" for a reason, it's not just about casinos who are giving rooms and bonuses, it's about any "service" that is willing to go that extra mile for their customers! It's what makes a difference between good and bad "services"! When you feel comfortable and nice/happy you will spend more money in any place (shop, store, casino, restaurant, mall, you name it...)!

And it's not like "YOU ARE FORCED TO TAKE THE ROOM AND DRINK", or anything else! It's about what you want to have a nice evening/day/weekend, what makes you happy and comfortable! As I said, with more money more doors will be opened for you, but you can still choose which doors to open! Maybe you see something as an exploit, but some people see a chance for a good time, and some people are ready to spend for that good time! Without regretting later...

Do you gamble at all? By your words, I can guess you don't drink and smoke... so if you gamble I would like to know do you always win?

And most importantly, in some casinos alcohol is served for free, I wonder if some casino decides to serve marijuana for free.  Grin

That would be awesome! Some good-looking ladies are serving rolled cigars and whisky... while I am enjoying some of my favorite games!!! A triple pleasure! That would be like a paradise! Or at least the closest I can get!

People have a very negative opinion about weed in general, judging by the comments in this thread! And this weed/gambling/alcohol combination is presented like some "conspiracy theory" from casinos to "take" more money from people! But it's not like that, I believe casinos are just trying to create a comfort zone for people who enjoy smoking weed and playing games...

With the cannabis lounges on casinos we can see more people enjoy gambling without frustration. When one has consumed cannabis, automatically he/she will feel free and relieved even when they keep on losing. Because, they won't be having the normal mindset. Governments and casino will make good revenue, and there is need of more security on those casinos.

You are an expert? Smiley

Looking at Ukraine's performance, I think they still have a chance to beat England, although the chance is not very high.

England it's not the strongest team in 1/4 of Euro, so chances are pretty good i think. At least, the same (as you noticed above) was with Sweden: very few people thought that Ukraine will beat it. But some people tells that this happened just because Sweden team had less players than ukrainian.

It's soccer, anything is possible! Definitely, we have interesting quarterfinals... on paper Spain, Italy, Denmark, and England are favorites, but for sure non of them will have an easy pass to the semifinals! After all, the Czech guys eliminated Netherland with 2 : 0, Switzerland managed to survive the game and win France after penalties... I guess we can say Ukraine is a little surprise as well with a win against Sweeden!
Tomorrow we have two games, Switzerland vs Spain and Belgium vs Italy. With looking at some stats, the first game is good for both teams to score and/or over 2.5 goals. But for the second game, I still don't have any clues for now...

https://ecd.rs/blog/zakon-o-digitalnoj-imovini-osnovni-pojmovi-porez-i-racunovodstvo

zakon je juce stupio na snagu, evo malo objasnjenje sa sajta ecd.rs, inace formulacija rudarenja u zakonu je stvarno prijatno lingvisticko iznenadjenje -  "pružanje usluga računarskog potvrđivanja transakcija u informacionim sistemima"

Bacio sam pogled... i neke "obicne" novine su takodje podelile ovu vest! Nesto se desava i u nasoj zemlji! Ovo je verovatno pozitivna vest za sve koje imaju neki ozbiljan crypto biznis i za one koji zele da zapocnu nesto ..."Zakonom o digitalnoj imovini su se ustvari regulisali pružaoci usluga"..

Meni najzanimljivi deo je o oporezivanju fizickih lica... zanimljiv i primer:

Quote
Aleksandar Matanović je objasnio kako je pokušao da plati porez na kapitalnu dobit od 15% na osnovicu dobiti (zarada između nabavne cene i prodajne cene kriptovaluta), međutim nije uspeo da popuni formular jer obrazac još uvek nije izmenjen i nije dodat pojam zarade od digitalne imovine.

Da li je doslo vreme da se legalizujemo ili cemo jos malo da budemo underground? Smiley
3648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto Gambling Licenses - What they actually mean on: July 01, 2021, 08:53:57 AM
Agree. I think we're forcing 2 different ideas here, one being registered and one being a scam. They're two separate ideas imo, and getting a license only answers to one, it's whether they are registered or not. Being a scam is a completely different issue. Registered casinos have agreed on rules and stuff of the license they got, as well as a starting point for their reputation, and that's it. A scam, on the other hand, can completely come from ANYWHERE, whether they be licensed or not. It just simply means that even if a casino is unlicensed, if it has a great reputation, then people could play on it. If it is licensed, but a bad reputation, then it's most likely a scam.

Nice explained Wxnident, people should understand that being registered doesn't automatically mean that casino is not scammy! For example, we can take two casinos Betfury and 1xBit... Betfury didn't have a licence until recently, they run the casino without any licence and there are no many complaints about that... it's not something we can say for 1xBit, they have a licence over 5 years and so many complaints!
So I would say a good reputation mean a lot more than a licence, at least in my opinion!

Nice digging from OP, I didn't have any clues about how to get a licence and how much that can cost! Interesting info definitely!

Hey,
thanks for the feedback - I am actually re-visiting casinos every day and updating reviews, considering the high number of active casinos on BTCGOSU (49+), it takes some time though. I will definitely look into updating at least the min withdrawals. ~
So far, you haven't updated the minimum withdrawal information in your reviews. Min withdrawal is showing 0.002 BTC at most of the casino review, but now it is lower than your provided information. As example: Min withdrawal amount is 0.0004 BTC for Primedice, 0.0005 BTC for Stake, 0.001 BTC for Crypto.Games, 0.0013 for BC.Game, $15 for Windice, $20 for Duckdice. Moreover, Crypto.Games have 1% house edge in dice game now. But your review says the HE is 0.8%.

Efi will not be around for a while... for known reasons...

He is like a "one-man company"... he gets help here and there, but most of the things he is doing by himself! He will see your comment for sure, but I sent him a PM too... I am sure he will take care of this!

It's crypto gambling, too many things are happening at the same time! It's hard (almost impossible I guess) to pay attention to all the changes and new things around (especially various bonuses and promotions), hard for us players, and imagine if someone needs to try them, do some research, and only then to publish something... after all, it's BTCGosu, the most trusted guide!

3650  Economy / Gambling / Re: Pragmatic play slots not available in my region on: June 30, 2021, 07:01:25 PM
For those VPN lovers, I advise you guys don't play with big money, since even if you get an epic win, there is still some possibility they will deny your withdrawal. Nowadays, VPN is pretty much necessary, but that's the reality of the 3rd party slots, we cannot access some from our country. There's no "legal" workaround about that, so pick another provider if you want to be sure there will be no problem in the future. The good thing is, slots games are pretty much similar, so you will have the alternative title from different provider.

Anyway, there's also a possibility that some casinos don't block mentioned combination (region x - Pragmatic Play), @OP so better mention what's your region so perhaps some of us have interesting info.

I am not a VPN lover, I just use VPN to play some providers! There's no other way around that... I know there're alternatives, but let's be honest, some providers are crazy good with very interesting slots... I don't wish for alternatives, I wish for the real thing! Smiley

I understand you perfectly, on many occasions it has happened to me that casinos that are very good and that have slots that represent a lot of fun and other games I cannot access due to my country, many times it is due to the type of license that the casino acquires, but one A solution that can help a lot is that you can play with VPN (preferably pay for it) and that you can talk to support to see if they can make an exception for you, this way you can play with VPN and you will not have problems with withdrawals, which is usually the biggest of many problems here that you see in the forum.

You don't need to pay for a VPN... I use a free one, you can find it as a google extension, also work some other browsers like Brave, Netbox... Well, I can't say I asked support about it, I just tried to play with VPN on (from Germany), it worked fine... I had several deposits/withdraws and for now, everything is fine and I will probably continue to play certain providers like that!

That's unbelievable! There are really people who are born lucky in gambling wherein they could make a small amount of money huge. I guess that person is still in shock since that isn't a small amount of money. As for me, he's really destined to get that prize. I believe that winning such an amount is still a person's destiny. Let's just hope that more people would be as lucky as him in the future.

This is both luck and skill! You can't just be lucky and randomly choose soccer matches and winners in the weekend's golf tournaments... I guess this guy follows soccer and golf, he had some hunch and he tried it with $15! As you can see in the article:
Quote
"I was sure that Hovland, Korda and Steve Stricker were good bets," the unidentified bettor told Betfair. "But I was a little unsure on Harris English."
He knew what he is doing! And yes he had the luck to win this... I just wish to say it's not pure luck! The bet was placed June 22 and paid out at 90,396-1 odds! It's like crazy odds to hit! Congrats to the winner, I hope he will hit something similar again one day!

How to deal with the market?
Pretty simple, just do what you think is right. I'm not gonna say just hold or sell it, not unless if it is needed.

The bear season will end up shortly and passes by (just for me). I do hold and patiently wait for the recovery, which I think I was right. May OP is also right because that his opinion, but I'm doubted if the other will do the same. But for me, do make a decision that you will never be in regrets or at least not at worse.

And what is the right thing to do? If you missed the opportunity to sell the top, the only good option is to continue holding! Of course, if you feel that we have a long way to the bottom, shorting can be a good thing to do, but that can easily backfire on you! Trading as trading can be profitable as we all know, but if someone is trading blindly most likely that person will suffer more losses!

Holding and adding more is a good thing to do while bear markets last! I am not sure will it end up shortly or not, but I am sure we will have more bull runs... in my opinion, it's just a question of time!

Edit: Am I tripping or there's no reset after win on auto betting? Smiley

Its there, you just need to fill the on win tab with 0 so that it would reset to your base bet each time you hit your auto cashout
...

Yes, I didn't fill the tab! It was disabled! Only when you fill the tab with 0 you get the reset after win! A bit tricky if you ask me, usually with these simple auto betting options "reset after the win" is automatically there!
I was lucky and green when I checked what's happening after few minutes! Most likely I would end up losing the entire balance if I didn't stop it on time! It's not like that never happened before, to forget to set "reset after every win"! Smiley

Betfury and BC.Games! There's a sportsbook at Betfury, other than that both casinos have a nice selection of games, in-house and third-party providers (slots, table games, etc...). I am using VPN when I wish to play some providers that are not allowed in my country, so not all the time.. and I never had any problems, with cashing out or anything!
By the way, when I turn on VPN I use Germany, and it's how I can play Pragmatic, Play'n'Go, and some others! It works fine, it can be slow from time to time, but just for a few seconds!
3655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Terms and condition a must read before signing up any online gambling site on: June 29, 2021, 10:38:11 PM
You have a point, but there's a reason people don't read ToS: they're extremely long and often written in a rather technical language, which normally people can't fully understand.


I'm a good example of that, I usually don't read the TOS as I'm thinking most TOS are all the same, it's more on technical but I believe the site would not make a stupid mistake to destroy their reputation, so my strategy is very simple, I usually play on a casino with a good reputation and has a big market as I know they'll ensure to keep that reputation intact.
^ Even though you are not reading the TOS but I think you must go first to the FAQ which is some of those questions come from the TOS. For me, reading TOS is a very important matter because you can read it there the DO and the DONTS which is causing possible mistakes every time you will use it. So if you have enough time to read the TOS much better. It is better if you want to protect yourself from possibly violating the rules and TOS is very important at all and nothing else matter.  

What Finestream wishes to say is that "DO & DONT's" are pretty much the same everywhere, if you follow the logic! And what can you possibly want to do in one casino that you can't do in any other?!

If you are an honest player you will not have problems... at least not some big problems! But this doesn't apply to high rollers and people who have good winning streaks (most often with sports betting)! People with a lot of money should think twice before choosing a casino, they can be robbed! And people with long/big winning streaks often have problems with cashing out! With reading or not their ToS!

A long awaited update and thanks for adding Crash. It is still one of the most fun and entertaining in-house casino games; when I get home, I will test it out and try to participate in the contest to finish in the top 50.

That is difficult to play because our luck only depends on how long the rocket crashes. And this game is very thrilling when you play without using the auto crash feature. It's hard to determine when the rocket crashed but the game is very fun and entertaining.

Mitchr4 we are talking about the crash game right? The crash game is around for some time, and I guess we all know what crash game is! Of course, it's fun and entertaining, for people who like to play it!

Animation is nice, but everything else is too simple, like with dices! Simple auto betting options, without any stats... more auto betting options, some session stats at least is what I like to see... I guess I like auto betting more than manual, and for that reason, I like it when I can have fun with the setup (you need more options for that), I like to see a statistic for my session, from that depends on my next session (rising bets, or I need to change something).
I would say not bad, but it could a lot better for sure!

I started an auto betting session, we will see the results tomorrow morning! Smiley

We have added a new Casino - check out our MyStake Casino review now!

Massive game selection, big bonuses, great sportsbook🎉 --> https://www.btcgosu.com/review/mystake-casino/

New crypto casinos are coming out with proper bonuses, great game selections, some of them have great loyalty programs and great user focus. It differs from casino to casino, but we are seeing casinos trying to attract players, and not just attract them to sign up, they are trying to keep those players in long run!

I guess it's a problem to decide where to play and where to stay! At least for us with a "limited budget for gambling"! It's hard to be VIP in all casinos if you are not a millionaire! Smiley I am not saying it's impossible, I have a good rank in some casinos, but it's gambling in the long run with some crazy sessions from time to time!

Germany lost against England  Shocked

For me it was no surprise!
This Germany is no longer as strong as it was a few years ago. This is at the end of a cycle. And only Portugal won, because Portugal didn't go into the game with the right attitude.

So I was hoping that England wins. And I think they will go far in the competition.

I agree with you, this is not a surprise... but I have to be honest and say that I expected more from Germany, they had to try harder and at least one goal.. I didn't see some effort and probably that's why they were not able to do anything!

Well, in 5 minutes we will watch Sweeden vs Ukraine! I have a few bets already, the first half draw and under 2.5, also in the first half! We will see how the game will start and I will add some more bets probably...

My favorites team might have gone through to the quarter-finals of the Euro yet the valiant Swiss who battled their way back into the game and in the end deserved it more than France! It's anything but an epic game and Croatia vs Spain did not disappoint either! Kylian Mbappe knocked his country out with a missed penalty as he not in his real structure. So sad for him, this guy didn't even score a single goal in this competition. Switzerland knock out France. To be sure most engaging night in football.


The pressure is huge! Mbappe missed the penalty, but that happens, he is not a bad player because of that... but the news just pumps their headlines!
We had a crazy day yesterday, with a lot of goals in both games! In one moment I thought that Croatians can take the lead and surprise all of us! But what they didn't do, Swiss boys did it! Total surprise and win! Congrats to them, I really didn't expect this to happen!
I guess we can expect a crazy day today as well! Bookies are giving a slight advantage to England and Sweeden judging by the odds, but I don't think they will have a clear passage! It will be tricky, and for the teams and for us bettors!
3660  Economy / Economics / Re: Is this a gang up against cryptocurrency? Or ways to regulation? on: June 28, 2021, 07:53:19 PM
UK is restricting Binance from there service in the UK and warning the people against binance.com. These restrictions looks to me like a means to regulate the activities of cryptocurrency.

The government's institutions expect all companies that work with money should comply their rules. From what I've read Binance doesn't, nothing unexpected here, especially since Binance is not registered in UK.
They will play cat and mouse, then, if UK is big enough market to worth the hassle, we'll see a binance.co.uk only for the brits, with certain restrictions enforced and so on. But that's only if UK is a big enough market for Binance...

I completely agree with you, nothing unexpected happened! The UK is a highly regulated country, so if Binance is not complying with their rules what else could happen? In the end, if Binance wishes to get on the UK market they can do that... but they will have to comply with UK rules and regulations! What can lead us to the conclusion that some Binance features will not be available there!

I don't think this is some "gang up against crypto"! It's just a serious country enforcing the rules, and just against one exchange that doesn't play by their book!
